Red IPA combines the maltiness of a red ale with the hop-forward characteristics of an IPA. It typically exhibits a rich, amber-red hue with a complex malt profile featuring caramel, toffee, and biscuit notes. At the same time, it boasts a significant hop presence, offering floral, citrus, and sometimes spicy flavors and aromas. Red IPAs strike a harmonious balance between malt sweetness and hop bitterness, resulting in a robust and flavorful brew.
